As a Celebrity Reporter, I cover everything from fashion and award shows to TV, film, and cultural conversations. This article mentions topics like pregnancy loss, disordered eating, abuse, sexual assault, and rape. Opening up about the awkward moment in a 2020 interview, Mariah said, “I was extremely uncomfortable with that moment is all I can say. And I really have had a hard time grappling with the aftermath.” “Neil Patrick Harris and the corpse cake of Amy Winehouse…I can’t look at him the same.” After a photo of the platter resurfaced online in 2022 and drew fresh scrutiny, Neil issued an apology. “A photo recently resurfaced from a Halloween-themed party my husband and I hosted 11 years ago. It was regrettable then, and it remains regrettable now. Amy Winehouse was a once-in-a-generation talent, and I'm sorry for any hurt this image caused,” he said in a statement to Entertainment Weekly. In 2023, news broke that Armie would not be facing criminal charges following a legal investigation into his alleged sexual assault. “Sexual assault cases are often difficult to prove, which is why we assign our most experienced prosecutors to review them. In this case, those prosecutors conducted an extremely thorough review but determined that at this time, there is insufficient evidence to charge Mr. Hammer with a crime,” said Tiffiny Blacknell, Director of the Bureau of Communications of the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office. Justin said in his 2021 apology, “I specifically want to apologize to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson both individually, because I care for and respect these women and I know I failed.” Depp sued Amber in 2019 after she wrote a 2018 article about domestic abuse, which his legal team argued implied he was an abuser, even though she didn’t name him. (In 2020, he lost a separate libel case in the UK against tabloid The Sun, which had called him a “wife beater.”) Depp denied Amber’s allegations, and in 2022, a jury ruled that Amber had defamed him, ordering her to pay $15 million in damages. Rihanna faced backlash for casting Depp in the show, with some people calling her “out of touch.” "As an advocate for healthy eating, food is very important to me and I sometimes get upset by how freely we as Americans eat and consume things without giving any thought to the consequences that it has on our health and society as a whole. The fact that the United States has the highest child obesity rate in the world frustrates me. We need to do more to educate ourselves and our children about the dangers of overeating and the poison that we put into our bodies," she said. “However, I should have known better in how I expressed myself; and with my new responsibility to others as a public figure, I will strive to be better,” she added. Elsewhere, Chris has been called out time and again for various comments and posts over the years, which you can read about in more detail here. “I love Woody,” said Scarlett at the time. “I believe him, and I would work with him anytime.” “At the same time, I think it’s also important to know when it’s not your turn,” she added. “I don’t mean that you should silence yourself. I mean sometimes it’s just not your time. And that’s something I’ve understood more as I’ve matured.” The froyo shop responded to Demi, stating, “We carry items for diabetics, Celiac disease, vegan, and of course have many indulgent items as well,” while numerous people pointed out that sugar-free options are needed for a variety of reasons. Demi ultimately ended up apologizing for her remarks, stating, “I’m sorry that I got the messaging wrong. I'm sorry that I may have disappointed some people. I walked into a situation that didn't sit right with me, my intuition said speak up about this, so I did.” "In light of this I would just like to clarify and confirm to all that I have always and will continue to hold women in the highest of regard, no matter the type of relationship whether it be friendship, professional, or a significant other. Never would I intend to disrespect in any way, shape or form. This experience has taught me a valuable lesson as to the context and the nuance of editorial liberties. I look forward to clarifying my position in the future towards a subject that it so vitally important and in which I wholeheartedly support,” he added. vanessa hudgens got that vid of her being ignorant abt corona deleted.... we got u on tape ma’am ! pic.twitter.com/nKScrn90xQ Some responses have been edited for length or clarity.
